Best coffee cafes in Singapore

My friends often joke that my blood is made up of iced coffee. It’s true, I am a self-proclaimed coffee fanatic. If you are like me and subsist on a diet of caffeine, check out our list of the best coffee cafes in Singapore for a good brew. Some of them serve food too, if you want bites to go along with your favourite coffee. Many of them also roast their own beans, so you can take home a bag or two to make your own coffee at home.

1. Big Short Coffee

After going viral in 2024, Big Short Coffee has kept its buzz by offering a creative and stunning lineup of drinks. The menu here is seasonal, which means their items change from time to time. Currently, they have their Spring 2025 Menu, which includes Dog Days ($9), a refreshing concoction of espresso, strawberry, clarified cookie milk, fig leaf hibiscus tea, and cherry wood smoke. If you can appreciate a creamy, bittersweet drink, get the Crema Al Matcha ($9), featuring ceremonial Kyoto uji matcha, condensed milk, Madagascar vanilla bean, and a sweet house-made coffee honeycomb.
